That is just 37 horsepower away from the big block Corvette that year. The 1973 Corvette was the sixth production year of the 1968 - 1982 'C3' generation. The 1973 Corvette was the first Corvette to feature a 5 mph front bumper. The front bumper was no longer a metal exterior construction. The new front bumper was really a molded urethane bumper cover painted to match the body. 25,521 Corvette Coupes were made. Original pricing for the 1973 Corvette Coupe was $5,561. The 1973 Corvette Convertible was priced slightly lower at $5,398, strange isn't it? This '73 Vette has a beautiful color combination of gloss silver with black stripes and it has just 53,155 original miles. Looking inside you'll find black leather interior. Under the hood is a 350 CID V8 engine backed by an automatic transmission. The 350 engine offers an air gap intake, 600 CFM Edelbrock carburetor, K&N air cleaner, DYNO sheets, and Hooker header side...

Many will consider '70s the beginning of the end for horsepower wars. With unleaded gas becoming the standard and smog regulation's tightening, there were an increasing number of hurdles for the big three to jump through. Chevy had their engineers working on how they were going to meet the demands of Uncle Sam and still get the muscle that Corvette was known for. The 350 SBC is still rated at a respectable 270 hp and is backed up by a 4-speed manual transmission that transfers the power to the rear wheels. Take out the T-tops out and you will be ready to cruise on that next spring day. The T-tops can be easily re-installed with ease, just in case the sunshine doesn-t last as long as it should. The interior is in very good shape and compliments the red exterior very well. The tilt telescoping wheel gives you...

1973 was the year that All in the Family was on CBS, Superstition by Stevie Wonder was riding the airwaves and this Corvette was rolling onto the street. What a scene! This year a Chevrolet advertisement headlined: 'We gave it radials, a quieter ride, guard beams and a nose job. ' Indeed, redesigned body mounts and radial tires did improve Corvette's ride, and interior sound levels were reduced by 40%. The chrome rear bumper was essentially carried over from the previous year. Under the hood lies a 350 CID V8 engine, L48, that produces 270 horsepower! The stout engine is backed by Turbo 400 automatic transmission. Here's the kicker, this car has 68,890 actual miles! Options include: AC, AM/FM radio, T-Tops, Power Brakes, Power Steering, Power Windows, Seat Belts, Leather Interior, and Radial Tires. The American Racing wheels wrapped in performance tires have just 500 miles on them. The paint job was professionally done and looks great. The...

1973 marked the fourth year of the C-3 Corvette, which was the first year for the injection molded front bumper cover starting the transformation from muscle car to a touring sports car. The 1973 model year was also the last to include the rear chrome split bumpers that gave the car that distinctive look from the late 60-s. The exterior has a great look with the white paint that still shines as it did over 40 years ago and the chrome that is in perfect condition thanks to the restoration only 1,500 miles ago. The numbers matching 350 cubic inch V8 and automatic transmission work flawlessly and make driving this Corvette a blast not only around town but it-s a great highway cruiser as well. The saddle vinyl interior is in immaculate condition especially for a car of its age and is very comfortable to...

The Corvette was first produced in 1953 and has since become a world-renowned sports car. 1973 was the beginning of the corvette-s transition from a muscle car into a sports car after being advertised with radial tires and redesigned body mounts. 1973 was also the year that the chrome front bumper was discontinued due to federal regulations.

This numbers matching beast is powered by a 454 CID big block V8 which is paired to a four-speed manual transmission. This was the most powerful powertrain option for 1973 and is still considered powerful amongst modern vehicles. Thanks to the Big block power, this car will have no problem handling spirited drives. This one owner car is sure to get attention wherever it goes!

The timeless C3 body style looks good in a repainted nonblack rose metallic color that is in decent condition. The hood was also replaced with a high-rise LT hood. Overall, this is a good driver quality car and is an excellent entry into the world of Corvettes or classic cars.
